Chapter 309: Bloodwrath Pill's Success, Inviting the Four Great Powers

Regarding the Fire Fusion stage...

Luo Chen's entry into this stage was almost effortless.

On his third attempt at Fire Fusion, he effortlessly achieved success.

What is Fire Fusion?

Whether it is mundane fire or Earth Fire, they all have their limits of intensity.

However, the spiritual energy refined by cultivators is filled with infinite possibilities.

Using Fire Fusion, within the finite, infinite power is born!

This is the profound essence of the Fire Fusion Technique.

Although it sounds mystical, the actual execution is not complicated.

Luo Chen only needed to use pure spiritual energy, employing a membrane-like method, to slowly infuse it into a wisp of flame.

During the smelting process, the pure spiritual energy gradually leaked out, merging with the flame.

With the aid of spiritual energy, the fire's intensity could be increased, and the flames became more vigorous.

Not only that, but during this process, due to the infusion of his own spiritual energy, the flames that could only be controlled by the array became much more flexible and controllable.

After mastering the technique, Luo Chen repeatedly experimented for three days.

He quickly raised his proficiency in the Fire Fusion Technique from the initial stage to a skilled level.

Only then did he stop and start refining the Bloodwrath Pill with his newfound understanding.

...

"This is my third attempt at refining the Bloodwrath Pill since entering the Fire Fusion Realm."

"Although the previous two attempts failed, there was visible progress, and success is just a step away."

"Perhaps, success will come this time!"

Thoughts flowed through his mind as he added the main ingredients into the Ice Emperor Cauldron one by one.

Then, Luo Chen shifted his attention to the second-rank Earth Fire.

Streams of pure spiritual power gushed out from his fingertips.

In the air, they formed a circle, resembling the membrane of a pill, enveloping the purest spiritual liquid.

These enveloped streams of spiritual energy, upon entering the Earth Fire, were slowly smeltered.

Thin strands of spiritual energy leaked out.

This was the pure Wood Spiritual Power refined by the Eternal Youth Sutra.

Among the Five Elements, Wood gives birth to Fire.

With the empowerment of spiritual energy, the second-rank Earth Fire, which was barely comparable to the initial stage of Foundation Establishment True Fire, suddenly intensified.

Gradually, its intensity surpassed even the Foundation Establishment True Fire produced after Luo Chen crushed the spiritual liquid!

It's worth noting that Luo Chen is currently at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and his spiritual power is incredibly pure.

The Foundation Establishment True Fire, after crushing the spiritual liquid, possesses immense power.

Yet, the second-rank Earth Fire, with the enhancement of the Fire Fusion Technique, managed to surpass it.

This showcases the subtlety and brilliance of the technique!

Luo Chen's thoughts stirred, and from the raging flames, he separated a strand, burning a corner of the Ice Emperor Cauldron.

This direction corresponded to the location of the cultivator's essence blood, one of the main ingredients.

"This element wasn't mentioned in the pill formula, but I realized it after multiple failures."

"Human essence blood, apart from qi and blood, also contains a portion of will and divine soul. Its complexity and purity far exceed ordinary imagination."

"It is said that the refinement of powerful artifacts requires not only spiritual consciousness sealing and spiritual energy nurturing but also blood recognition."

"This shows the complexity of essence blood!"

"The previous refining method was too crude."

"It's clear that when dealing with cultivator essence blood, apart from the initial steps, separate fire control is needed during the refining process."

After understanding all this, Luo Chen's previous confusions suddenly became clear!

That was why he had been getting closer to success with each attempt.

If he had used his previous pill refinement techniques, he couldn't have achieved such control over different materials in a single batch.

Fire, no!

But this time, after mastering the Fire Fusion Technique, everything changed.

He had better control and more powerful flames at his disposal.

Everything was moving in the right direction.

After about three hours, Luo Chen withdrew the fire array.

He waited quietly for the time it takes an incense stick to burn, then executed the traction technique.

Seven or eight crimson pills flew out of the Ice Emperor Cauldron.

A pungent, scorched smell wafted through the air.

Luo Chen's eyes lit up, and he grabbed one of the pills.

"This color!"

"This pill fragrance!"

"It's almost identical to the Blood Burning Pill, but its medicinal power is hundreds of times stronger!"

The First Rank Blood Burning Pill is derived from the Second Rank Bloodwrath Pill.

Although their effects differ, the overall direction is the same.

"Is this the Bloodwrath Pill?"

Murmuring to himself, a smile spread across Luo Chen's face.

Eventually, he couldn't contain his laughter.

"Hahaha! I succeeded!"

"I finally made it!"

...

In the cave mansion, Bai Meiling, who had been digesting the Dark Yin Imperial Elixir for several months, seemed drunk, dazed, and confused.

Hearing the unrestrained laughter coming from the alchemy chamber, she looked perplexed.

She couldn't understand why Luo Chen was behaving so uncharacteristically today.

Did the pill refinement succeed? It often succeeded before, but I've never seen such a loss of composure.

Amidst the laughter, there was pride, joy, and confidence, as if a refreshing breeze had blown away the clouds, revealing a bright moon.

What a delightful laughter it was!

But she was unaware.

This successful pill refinement meant something significant to Luo Chen.

It wasn't just about mastering a Second Rank pill formula.

Nor was it merely about fulfilling the promise made to Wang Yuan years ago.

It wasn't even related to reaching the Fire Fusion Realm.

The most important thing was...

This success meant that Luo Chen could finally, without relying on the system, purely rely on his accumulated foundation, experience, knowledge, financial resources, cultivation realm, and various other factors to refine a Second Rank pill corresponding to his cultivation realm! For pill refinement, it was not a matter of starting from scratch.

For Luo Chen, it was starting from scratch! From now on, he could confidently declare himself a Second Rank Pill Master.

Not a fake one who completely relied on the system.

The joyous laughter lasted for a long time.

When Luo Chen walked out of the pill refinement room, Baimei Ling approached him in a daze.

"Master, what's making you so happy?"

"It's nothing, I just refined a new pill," Luo Chen said, looking at his sooty hands. "Prepare hot water for me, I want to bathe and change. After that, there's something important to do!"

...

With the successful refinement of the Bloodwrath Pill, it meant that he had entered the realm of pill refinement.

Although he didn't rely on the system's help, it was like practicing a new technique, and he could now benefit from the system's proficiency bonus.

With this, Luo Chen didn't have to worry about subsequent refinements.

Instead, he had other important matters to attend to!

"Calculating the time, Sima Huiwang should be ready by now."

"In that case, I'll send out the invitations in advance!"

After bathing and feeling refreshed, Luo Chen sat at a desk filled with the fragrance of sandalwood, personally writing each invitation.

[Foundation Establishment Accomplished, The Great Dao is Within Reach]

[Year 3422 of the Heavenly Alliance, Wuxu Time, Auspicious for Celebrations]

[Sincerely Inviting the True Disciple of the Ice Fortress, Dantai Jinai, to Attend the Foundation Establishment Ceremony of Sima Huiwang, President of the Celestial Assembly]

[It would be an honor if you could attend in person]

[Ceremony Location: Huixin Hall, Crimson Peak]

[Luo Chen Invites]

The invitations were simple, without any strict formatting.

Luo Chen wrote them casually, yet they exuded a carefree and refreshing air.

After finishing one invitation, he set it aside.

Luo Chen picked up the brush and continued writing.

The next day, someone from the Celestial Assembly arrived.

Luo Chen handed the invitations to Sima Xian, the Hall Master of the Battle Palace.

"These are the invitations for your younger sister's Foundation Establishment Ceremony. Make sure they are delivered safely to each family, and there must be no delays."

"It's best to get their replies to confirm their attendance."

Sima Xian nodded repeatedly, his face filled with excitement.

The ceremony day would undoubtedly be the most glorious day of his younger sister's life.

He, more than anyone, didn't want any complications to arise.

After giving instructions to Sima Xian, Luo Chen turned to Murong Qinglian and Gu Caiyi.

"The arrangements for the ceremony, including spirit wine, tea, fruits, and food, will be your responsibility. Don't be stingy; make it grand and luxurious!"

The two women exchanged glances and immediately agreed.

Finally, Luo Chen looked at Qin Liangchen, the Hall Master of the Radiant Light Palace.

"Before the ceremony, I want to see a clean and tidy Crimson Peak, with everything in order."

"Also, have all the outer disciples wear the custom-made Celestial Assembly robes."

"Lastly, have the outer disciples spread the news of Sima Huiwang's Foundation Establishment Ceremony through their connections!"

These were simple tasks.

Qin Liangchen readily agreed.

After giving these instructions, Luo Chen looked at the four people in front of him and smiled slightly.

"Now that Sima Huiwang has established her foundation, it's time to put your Foundation Establishment on the agenda."

The four of them exchanged glances.

Who wouldn't want to establish their foundation? But it wasn't that easy.

Aside from the dangers of Foundation Establishment, the required spirit herbs were not easy to come by.

"Especially you, Caiyi!"

Suddenly, Luo Chen turned his attention to Gu Caiyi.

"Ah!" Gu Caiyi exclaimed in surprise, "I haven't even reached the peak of Qi Condensation, is there a need to rush?"

Luo Chen smiled, "That's why you need to hurry!"

Being personally reminded in front of everyone, even the experienced Gu Caiyi felt a bit embarrassed.

She bowed slightly, "Caiyi will not disappoint your expectations."

Luo Chen shook his head with a smile.

"You all may leave now. We'll meet again at the Foundation Establishment Ceremony in a month!"

The four of them didn't linger and bade farewell to Luo Chen before leaving Tianlan Peak.

Soon after, the four of them walked together on the streets of the Immortal City.

Gu Caiyi, skilled in communication, initiated a conversation.

"The President's final encouragement for us, could it be that the rumors are true?"

Qin Liangchen raised an eyebrow, "Are you talking about the rumor that he obtained a large number of Foundation Establishment Pills before?"

Gu Caiyi nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the rumors outside are detailed and credible. It's said that in the Geng Family, Divine Craft Sect, and Danyuan Sect, our Celestial Assembly has also seized a considerable number of Foundation Establishment Spirit Herbs."

Qin Liangchen subconsciously looked towards Sima Xian.

In that battle, Sima Xian was at the forefront, leading the charge and having the deepest involvement.

In response, Sima Xian shook his head.

"How would I know? Tianyin Peak and Yuzhen Temple are both small and impoverished factions. Anyway, I didn't find any Foundation Establishment Spirit Herbs. Moreover..."

He paused for a moment.

A bitter expression appeared on his face.

"I, like Brother Qin, have long passed the age of sixty. Foundation Establishment is difficult to achieve, and even if I succeed, there's no hope for the Golden Core Path."

Qin Liangchen's heart felt a pang of sorrow.

"Indeed!"

"Even if the President really has Foundation Establishment Spirit Herbs, giving them to me would be a waste. Moreover, I have a hidden ailment, and this arm will be a huge hindrance during Foundation Establishment."

"Rather than wasting them, it's better to give the Foundation Establishment Spirit Herbs to the young people who need them the most."

His gaze fell on Murong Qinglian and Gu Caiyi, who were walking side by side.

Facing these expectant eyes.

Murong Qinglian, however, looked disheartened.

"I've already failed Foundation Establishment once, how dare I hope for a second attempt?"

"If I were given another Foundation Establishment Spirit Herb, it would be unfair to others."

"On the contrary, it's you, Caiyi..."

Facing the three pairs of eyes staring at her, Gu Caiyi felt helpless.

"You three are all at the peak of Qi Condensation, why are you looking at me, a mere ninth-layer Qi Condensation cultivator?"

Sima Xian disagreed, "If you achieve Foundation Establishment, it would be a great help to the President! The Celestial Assembly doesn't lack capable warriors, one more of me won't make a difference. On the contrary, if you achieve Foundation Establishment, in terms of business, you can personally negotiate with Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and many things will become much easier."

Qin Liangchen nodded, "Moreover, you're young and have the most solid foundation. Whether it's Foundation Establishment or Core Formation, you have great potential."

"The more you talk, the more absurd it sounds!"

Gu Caiyi was helpless, as the conversation had even touched upon Core Formation.

However, Murong Qinglian had an additional perspective.

"With the President's talent and perseverance, his future steps will definitely not stop."

"The few of us are limited by our aptitude and age, and we will gradually fall behind."

"But you, Caiyi, are different. You met Luo Chen in your prime. The more powerful he becomes, the more prosperous the Celestial Assembly will be, and the more cultivation resources you will obtain."

"Given time, we will all have passed away. Perhaps, only you will be able to accompany him on this long cultivation journey."

"So, you mustn't underestimate yourself!"

Gu Caiyi blinked her eyes.

For a moment, she was at a loss for words.

She wanted to encourage the others, but looking at Qin Liangchen with his temples turning white, Sima Xian who had lost his vigor, and Murong Qinglian's disheartened expression, she couldn't bring herself to say those superficial words.

Clearly, she had already become quite skilled at delivering such empty phrases.

Her thoughts were in turmoil, as if she could see countless years later, her friends by her side, some dying in battle, others passing away from old age.

Only Luo Chen, alone, continued on the path of cultivation.

Her heart tightened with a nameless anxiety.

In the silence, the four of them parted ways at the crossroads.

Each went to handle the tasks assigned by Luo Chen.

But in everyone's hearts, there was a hint of melancholy.

Qin Liangchen's casual words couldn't possibly be that sincere.

Did the couple not desire to extend their lifespan after Foundation Establishment, to watch over their son in the future?

Did Sima Xian not wish to become the strongest support for his younger sister in the Celestial Assembly after achieving Foundation Establishment?

...

In the seventeenth cave mansion.

In front of Luo Chen, there were two invitations that hadn't been sent out yet.

One was for Chu Kui, and the other was for Dantai Jinai.

Luo Chen planned to deliver these two invitations personally.

But before that, there was one more thing to do.

"Breaking the restrictions on Storage Bags always requires caution, fearing that a slight mistake might damage such a Spatial Artifact."

"Fortunately, I'm at a similar cultivation realm, and my Divine Soul foundation is slightly stronger."

"It will only take two or three days. As long as I can unlock Fei Changqiu's Storage Bag, I'll be able to better handle many things during the Foundation Establishment Ceremony."

Luo Chen looked at the Storage Bag in front of him, embroidered with golden patterns, his heart filled with anticipation.

As the leader of a medium-sized faction, he had two Foundation Establishment Cultivators and over a hundred disciples under his command.

His assets were likely to be quite substantial.

What he anticipated the most was undoubtedly the Foundation Establishment Pill mentioned by Luo Fen, the Grand Cultivator of Luo Sha Market.

Additionally, there was also the spirit stones mentioned by Ling Yuzhi, which couldn't be found in the treasure vault of the Divine Craft Sect.

The only possible location for these items was Fei Changqiu's personal Storage Bag.

"I hope it won't disappoint me!"
